Tina, you never fail to have lovely little, and beautiful, insights into your daughter's too brief life, and death.
Love Southwold too and your description of the beach huts is more than poetic.
A poem that brings tears and smiles,...

The title and the picture you chose so much at odds with the content of the poem but it adds to its poignancy.
I am sure that there are many young girls in such a situation, trapped by their needs.
A well written thought provoking...
